This weekend I bought Queen II and it is one of my favorites. I have only had it for two days, but I've warmed up to it really quickly. What are your guys' favorite songs off this album? I personally like White Queen (As It Began), March of the Black Queen and Some Day One Day. And of course, Seven Seas of Rhye, but that's obvious. |

Brilliant album! My favorite, second to Jazz. :D...My favorite track is definitely White Queen and The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke...Nevermore as well. :D! |

I LOVE March of the Black Queen so freaking much! I'm in love with Queen II. I don't like the fact that Nevermore is only 1:26 long because it's so awesome. |

Nevermore is perfect because: it is like it is... the song leaves you wanting for more... P. |

I freakin' LOVE "Nevermore." One of my favorite Queen songs ever. The piano for it is lots of fun to play and quite pretty as well. |

Queen II is a work of bloody beautiful art, I love it to peices! |
Al TurHao 10.10.2006 08:25 |
Listen to it as a whole! It's the best Queen album to do so. A great sum of all the die-hard fans here will tell you IT'S THEIR BEST ALBUM EVER! They are right. |

An album chock-full of fabulous songs, would have been better if 'Loser In The End' wasn't on there though! |
Localboy80 10.10.2006 13:37 |
Glad you love it! Quite simply their best! |
Rikke 10.10.2006 14:04 |
Some Day One Day, White Queen (As It Began) and Faire Feller's Master-Stroke.. Those three are my favourites, and The March Of The Black Queen and Ogre Battle rock ;D Trying to keep myself from mentioning the entire album xD |
slightly mad 22 10.10.2006 14:19 |
it is my fave album Father,To Son, Ogre Battle,White Queen. Fairy Fellers Master-stroke Nevermore, March Of The Black Queen and Funny How Love is are all on my m,p3 player at present |

I love 'Queen II'. But I also love 'Queen'. To me it has an 'elegiac' and almost spiritual atmosphere. Does someone like 'Queen' here like me? |

They are right.I like Queen II, but it's not even in my top 5. Maybe not even top 10. Let me think. 1. A Kind Of Magic 2. Innuendo 3. The Miracle 4. Hot Space 5. The Works 6. Made In Heaven 7. The Game 8. Queen 9. Jazz 10. News Of The World |

I really like every single song on the album. March Of the Black Queen is my favourite, The Loser In The End is my less favourite song of the album. Enjoy Queen II! |

Queen 2 is my favourie album, no fillers but ironically it is one of their least commercial with only 7 seas of rhye being known by non Queen fans. Songs like Fairy Fellers, March of the Black Queen and Ogre Battle are light years away from some of the 80's crap the band put out. I'm sorry but their are at least 4 tracks on every album from Hot Space onwards that are just pop rubbish. The tokienesque dungeons and dragon vibe of Queen 2 are fantastic and anyone who loves this album should check out Ronnie James Dio's stuff. |
Farrokh Mercury 10.10.2006 16:26 |
My fav songs on this would have to be Nevermore, March Of The Black Queen, Fairy Fellers, and obviously, Seven Seas Of Rhy. |
louvox 10.10.2006 16:34 |
Queen II is probably their second best effort and one of my personal favorites. I never seems to get the recognition it deserves. Probably the closest they came to a concept type album and all without any dreadful synthesizers. Something that would plague them from Hot space on. |
SweetestSightEverSeen 10.10.2006 19:50 |
Queen II is interesting, it has Queen's best ever song, the March of the Black Queen, and worst ever song, the Loser in the End, on one album! |

I view 'Queen II' as the greatest album of all time by anyone, not just Queen. It's the purest form of Queen's music. Queen I is just as non-commercial/pure Queen, but the lack of studio use limited them one just how much they could do for the album. Queen II has no such limitations, but is full of sounds and instruments. I view the following as pure classics: Procession, White Queen, Someday One Day, Ogre Battle, Fairy Feller's Master Stroke, Nevermore, The March of the Black Queen, Seven Seas of Rhye. There isn't a track on this album that doesn't work, plus it's the only album to section off the writer's works. It has the most vocals, the most production, and it's energy is blinding. I've heard that the Prophet Song almost made the album. If it had, Oh wow! The greatest future Queen day for me will be the day I first hear 'Queen II' via DVD Audio DTS 5.1 technologies. Lastly, I always tell anyone who rates 'Bohemian Rhapsody' as the greatest song ever made, "Dude, you have got to hear 'The March of the Black Queen' because it's better!" |

But just because something is sophisticated musically and lyrically, doesn't mean it's the best. The simplest of songs can be a hit. Whatever makes a happy, is a best song. I prefer Bohemian Rhapsody because it's more catchy and I actually like the music in it more. |
mike hunt 11.10.2006 01:58 |
yea, I love both black queen and bo rhap, but bo rhap is an iconic song and the music and lyrics are better than black queen in my IMO. |
Poo, again 11.10.2006 10:58 |
There's not a single mediocre song on this album. Fucking great. |
omega 11.10.2006 14:45 |
best album ever, i would love a 5.1 mix of it to be released. if your not too keen on Loser In The End try replacing it with She Makes Me (cross fade it in for a seamless fit) |
Katastrophe Mercury 11.10.2006 16:32 |
lol i JUST bought this album not even 2 weeks ago. i will forever love the song March Of The Black Queen. :3 this is my fave album (for the moment at least!) |

To me, it's as good as Bo Rhap. But simple is good as well. My all-time personal favorite is 'All Dead All Dead' which is quite simple. |

One of my favourite albums. White Queen (As It Began) is an awesome track. Father to Son, Ogre Battle and March of the Black Queen are very good songs as well. I also have soft spot for Nevermore. |
